Tour Paestum & Pertose Caves

Your English-speaking tour driver will welcome you at the dock in Naples. This private, unique tour will take you to discover the famous Caves and Greek settlement in the inland of Naples.

You will visit Paestum, a greek stronghold and explore ancient caves on this private tour

Paestum was founded over 2,500 years ago by the Greeks, who were attracted by the sweeping, flat countryside, and rich soil, which was ideal for farming – still a thriving industry here. They built three beautiful, columned temples, (not unlike the Pantheon in Greece) which are fairly intact to this day, and many Greek artifacts which have been discovered in this area are on display in the museum there.

Not much further south, you’ll find the natural “Angel’s Caves” where the sunken river, Negro, has created a small, underground lake.

Said-to-be 35 million year-old caves the area extends for about 3,000 meters underground, and were first discovered in the late 19th century when many ancient items made from stone, bone and metal were also found there.

Let’s take you on a cultural experience 3000 years back into time. Your private driver will meet you at the port with a name card and you can enjoy a relaxing drive through the Amalfi coast area. At the end of this wonderful tour, you will return to your cruise ship in Naples Port.
